We welcome the midfielder to Badgers Hill as our first signing of the summer!
The Club is pleased to have agreed to sign central midfielder George Dowling from Bristol Manor Farm.
The 26-year-old, an ex-Bristol City player who enjoyed stints at Torquay and Eastleigh during his time with the other Robins, has also played for Weston-super-Mare and Swindon Supermarine.
On securing the move, manager Danny Greaves said: "I have been tracking George for a while, initially trying to sign him after watching him in a pre-season game for Bath City. He went on to have a couple of good seasons with Marine before joining Bristol Manor Farm this summer.
"I managed to get out and watch him a couple of times last season and he was head-and-shoulders the best player on the park in those games. He is a bit of a throwback in the fact he can go box to box and is comfortable in all aspects of the midfield role and will chip in with a few goals and assists too.
"He will add further experience to our group and will be a good character in the dressing room which will be needed in a gruelling 40+-game season with lots of ups and downs."
On signing for the Robins, George said: “Obviously I’m delighted to have signed for Frome Town. I’ve had many conversations regarding next season and, after speaking with Greavesy there was only one team I was signing for.
"We both have clear goals on what we want to achieve next season and I’m excited to get started.”
